I was essentially as follows:"Reserve Officer Grace and I wereon duty on Boston common. We hearda crowd shouting. Saw the crowd, fouror five young men coming toward usshouting, hooraying and raising a general disturbance."Officer Grace and myself approached and they ran. I went afterthe smaller one. The other trippedine up, throwing me against one of theeeats on the walk. I found I was in abad condition. Officer Grace got thefirst man, the smaller one. Officer Murhy-came and when the Officersyoung man back to whereI Was, the young man said, I- am President Roosevelt's son.'I The man who committed the assaultand the man who said he 'was Roosevelt can be identified by the policeman.The charges against the man whocalled himself Roosevelt will be disorderly conduct and assault on an unknown man."PETTIGRE W WILWOR FO HEARSTperityTisFormer South Dakota Senator Accepts the Editor's Invitation toCampaign in New York.Special to The" Journal.Plankinton, S.

There isno politics in Cuba"that is, no politics as that word is understood amonghighly civilized peoples. No great issues divide the two parties there. I issimply a struggle between the ins and'the outs, and hence it is that issuesare based on mere personalities, on theselfish ambitions of individuals.

Of the 28,000,000 acres inCuba, one-half are still, primeval forest. Only 3 per cent olthe arable landis under cultivation.The present population of Cuba isestimated at 1,700,000. There are 153persons to the square mile in the province of Havana, decreasing to buteight to th6 square mile in Puerto Principe. The former is about as thicklysettled as the state of New York, thelatter as the state of Washington.It has been estimated that Cuba canmaintain a population of 340 to thesquare mile, or 15,000,000, which is lessthan the density of Ehode Island orMassachusetts. What her materialprosperity and political, importancewiil be when tne' population is one-thirdto one-half that numbe* may be leftto the imagination.The professional revolutionists of theisland, now in control of its affairs, donot want such prosperity, for with itscoming their occupation would be gone.Anybody who thinks:that SecretaryTaft has a simple problem confrontinghim, or that the American governmentis aching to annex a country which isheavily loaded with trouble and ex-Eoby local applications, as they cannot reach thediseased portion of the ear.

This $100,-000,000 was divided as follows: Sugarplantations, $25,000,000 tobacco lands,$45,000,000 fruit lands, $3,500,000mines, $5,000,000 Cuba Railway company, $12,000,000 street railways, $8,-000,000 other investments, $1,500,000.Rich as the island is today, its future, under any proper-management, isgolden.

The influence of thisenergetic '?lty*is-reachin out In a constantly wMen'Jrig circle and is greatlybenefiting, the country about her,, whileat the same time "she is receiving muchbenefit from the increasing prosperity ofthese surrounding counties. Each monthmarks an increase in the produce, cattleand other livestock brought to the markets of the city, and the time is not fardistant when this comparatively youngcity will rank among the largest distributing points In this country.Thickly Settled Section.The counties- about Fort Worth areamong the oldest and most thickly populated in the state, and they represent agoodly Bum of wealth. It ,is estimatedthat within a radius of 150 miles of FortWorth the inhabitants now number 2,500,-000, and yet there is plenty of room fornewcomers from other states.The counties of north Texas are richand fertile, well adapted in every way tostock raising and farming, and in combining" these two pursuits the profits ofeach are largely increased. Cattle raising has long been, associated with Texasin the popular mind, and probably veryfew people realize how the industry haschanged in the past decade or so. Thesechanges are especially marked in north'Texas, for there the value of the land,has been increasing so rapidly and therehas been such a demand for- farms thatthe boundless ranges and enormousranches are practically all divided up Intosmaller areas devoted either to agriculture or cattle and stock raising, or acombination of both.Better Grades of Cattle.In place of the long-horned steers ofthe,earlier days, the cattle are coming tobe more and more each year of the shorthorned, domesticated breed. In. the northTexas counties registered herds of highbred cattle are very numerous, and fromyear to year there is a great increase inthem. The graded cattle, too, fere veryfine, for from the .native stock the finestspecimens are taken and used for "breeding purposes, ci-ossed with Durham orHereford or some other pure bloodedstock and thus eachyear sees .improvement in the herds. This procedure natI'urally makes cattle raising more costly,but the market prices for such stock aremuch higher and. the demand for thishigh grade of beef is extensive. All ofthe north Texas counties have very finerailroad facilities and Forth Worth, withthe big andArmouryplants,a?-markeSwiftaffordBwhich is easil reached andwhere the prices are good for high gradecattle for beef or for breeding purposesin other parts of the state, where theprogress in the cattle industry' has notmade such rapid strides as in thesehighly favored counties.Increase in Dairy Farming.In Tarrant county there are manyfarms where, in addition to the crops, ofwheat, corn, oats, cotton and hay, orthe fruit and truck gardening, herds offine blooded cattle are raisedi They areeitheiriannersold on thethemarkete otroare most favorabl milk flovrand the production- of butter fat and,Used for the dairying industry, which isquite. extensive now an4 yields an excellent profit. If other sections in Texaswhich:are especially adapted to cattleraising would' follow the example setthem by Tarrant county and several otherscounties of North Texas, the state wouldnot be obliged to import nearly threequarters of the abutter and cheese consumed within her borders. The conditionin years past was usually attributed tothe fact that, while the native grasseswere Very nutritive and unsurpassed forfeeding cattle for market, they lackedsome properties which would,insure thebountiful milk yield which.is necessaryto make a prosperous dairying industry.However, this can no longer be urgedagainsfr the establishment of creameries,because alfalfa, sorghum, and the cow.pea have been found to .grow abundantlyin many sections of the state, and-theymake a food which is unsurpassed forcattle in the spring and early summerand during the dry Season In winter.Silo has proved to be most excellent, sothese, together with the native grasses,have removed the food problem and theclimatic conditions are certainly far morefavorable for this industry than those ofthe best dairying states in the north.There is no reason why the counties ofnorth Texas should not become In thenear future leaders in thdairyinggin-dustry as they1are now Inethe raisin ofhigh-grade cattle for market.Two Prosperous Counties.In-Clay and Wichita counties the cattle interests are .'enormous, ahd combinedwith them are the agricultural interests,which have made these two countiesfamous for their- large wheat and oatcrops.Montague county also produces largelyof wheat oats, kaffir corn* and sorghum,and^the improved methods of cattle raising which are followed create a largelocal demand for the grain and fodder.In Wise county a similar condition prevails and during the winter the wheatand oat fields afford abundant opportunity for grassing. In the creek-bottomsoils alfalfa is very successfully grownand is found of great service in the feeding of cattle.Jack county Is nearly two-thirds prairieland, and the Mesquite grass grows inthe greatest abundance, so conditions arevery favorable to cattle raising. Thenigh graded and registered stock arefound quite universally, and the cattlemen exhibit their herds of pure-blooded,Durhams, Aberdeen Angus, and Herefords with Justified pride.Grayson county aaa exceedingly goodrailroad facilities, so there are great inducements for the raising of fine beeffor .market, and the industry is thrivingand growing more extensive each year:In Cooke, Denton, Fannin and Huntcounties the cattle Interests are verylarge, and the stock is generally of avery high grade, which makes the industry very remunerative.Many Registered Herds.There, are many registered herds ofDurhams and Herefords, and the ambitions of the stockmen, whether ownersof large ranches or farms where cattleraising is combined with the generalagricultural enterprises, will tend tomake this section of TTexas famous forthe high standard of ,the cattle raised''there, and sent to market.The cattle industry, in, north Texas hasa great future before -it for all the conditlons.are favorable for-its developmentthe climate Is excellent, the native'grasses, the fodder, hay, alfalfa, and thesmall grains grow abundantly, and therailroad and market facilities cannot beexcelled.
